Hebrews 5:11-14
Legacy Standard Bible
11 Concerning [a]him we have much to say, and it is hard to explain, since you have become dull of hearing. 12 For though [b]by this time you ought to be teachers, you have need again for someone to teach you (A)the [c](B)elementary principles of the (C)oracles of God, and you have come to need (D)milk and not solid food. 13 For everyone who partakes only of milk is not accustomed to the word of righteousness, for he is an (E)infant. 14 But solid food is for (F)the [d]mature, who because of practice have their senses (G)trained to (H)discern both good and evil.

Hebrews 5:11-14
American Standard Version
11 Of [a]whom we have many things to say, and hard of interpretation, seeing ye are become dull of hearing. 12 For when by reason of the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need again [b]that some one teach you the rudiments of the [c]first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of solid food. 13 For every one that partaketh of milk is [d]without experience of the word of righteousness; for he is a babe. 14 But solid food is for [e]fullgrown men, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern good and evil.
